A Boy Traded For A Horse, originally titled Little Journeys into Storyland, is another gem from yesteryear. Louis Reynolds and Charles Paddock, both authors and church leaders, created the book for inner-city young people during the days when people made a livelihood selling books door-to-door. With over forty well illustrated stories of short biographical sketches of prominent African Americans, incidents in history, missionary effort, home and school experiences, A Boy Traded for a Horse, is a treasure house for those who appreciate good reading.
